Stenciled Napkin Pillows for my banquette -- with Royal Design Studios!! {tutorial}!!

 I have been on a bit of a stenciling kick this summer...

I stenciled a Chevron rug,  a Spray Painted Circle Rug, and then I tackled my kitchen window with some Faux Roman Shades and some painted pillows for my kitchen banquette.

And yesterday I stenciled this rug for my family room -- only with thicker stripes!! It turned out SOOO good!! I'll be sharing that soon. 

I thought it might be fun to make some pillows for my Kitchen Banquette with Royal Design Studio stencils and some white and patterned napkins I found at Target. {these are the Chain Link and Lattice Endless Circle Stencils}

Super easy!!

Here's how to make them -- 

Stenciled Napkin Pillows

1. The first thing I did was I mixed up some paint and Martha Stewart’s paint medium. This makes the paint softer and washable.


2. Then I laid the napkin on my work surface and taped the Royal Design Studio - Chain Link Stencil and Endless Circles Stencil over the top with some painter’s tape.


3. I used this really cool roller top that fits on top a container and it makes stenciling a breeze. It’s also from Martha Stewart’s new decorative paint line.


4. Once it was painted, I laid the napkins out to dry.


5. Then I sewed another napkin to the stenciled side and added a zipper.

So now I have some fun pillows that go with my new kitchen décor AND they were super easy to make!!

I love Royal Design Studio because they have amazing, modern design AND their stencils are made out of the highest quality materials and they have guide marks that make lining up the stencils on a wall a breeze.

Have a Fantastic Friday!!!

Stenciled Circle Rug Tutorial {Spray Paint Project}

Have I ever mentioned that I have a slight obsession with the Disney Show "Good Luck Charlie"? 

I was sick last Spring and spent about 5 hours straight watching it in some sort of "Good Luck Charlie" marathon - lol! I adore the use of color in the "Good Luck Charlie" house!!

Like their turquoise couch! So fun. I developed a bit of a crush on the rug from that set. So I tracked it down and discovered that it is the Key Turquoise Rug from Suzanne Sharp - a famous rug designer and also several thousand dollars. Update -- just requested the price list and yes, it's $5,000 - yikes!!! I think I'm going to try to recreate this rug for my family room :)

And while I was obsessing about this rug, I fond another rug. Also by Suzanne Sharp and decided to try to recreate that -- it's the Sellarsbrook rug.

Here's what I did: 

1. I used cheap rolls of shelf liner. 

2. I traced two sizes of plates onto the liner. 

3. I cut out the circles. 

4. I laid the circles on the rug and overlapped them, three rows.

5.Then I taped rows on top of the circles. And taped the edges up.

6. Then I spray painted the whole rug. 

I bought the rug from Ikea. It was $24.99. In retrospect, I should have rolled the paint on instead of spray painting. The rug has ridges, so it was hard to get the rug taped with the ridges, so some of the spray paint did get underneath the tape. If I had rolled it on, I think the edges would have been a little crisper. 

But overall I'm really pleased with the rug. It looks so pretty in my garden -- with my striped yellow bench.  I love turquoise and yellow together!! 

So now my patio is extra colorful!!! 

and instead of the $3000 price tag -- mine was under $40!!

Thanks for stopping by - I appreciate it!! 

Have a Fantastic Friday!!
